  I’m trying to delete my account, but I can’t seem to find the button to do so. I’ve deleted the site already, but I want to delete the account itself.

  Hi!

  If you wish to leave WordPress.com and already deleted the site, you can remove all personal information from your Account Settings (click on your photo in the right corner to get there) and change your password to a random string. This will leave your account inactive and prevent you from gaining access to it in the future.

  Best regards,
  Olga
